The Queen Mother did not come in person.
Lord Mingjia and Princess Ying glanced at each other and invited the aunt to the back.
"Aunt Ren......" Lord Mingjia asked.
"The Queen Mother felt a little sick when she woke up in the morning, and she didn't want to pass it on to the little county lord, so she decided not to come temporarily." Aunt Ren had a round face and a white face, looking quiet and kind, and said, "Niangniang specially asked the slave maid to tell the princess and the county lord, so you don't have to worry about her." ”
Princess Ying opened her mouth and asked in a low voice, "How is the phoenix body of Niangniang?" ”
"It's true that I'm just feeling a little sick, I've already seen the imperial doctor, and I also said that it's good to recuperate and rest." Aunt Ren hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because the weather has been cold recently, and several noble masters in the palace feel uncomfortable today." Otherwise, the full moon ceremony of the little county lord will definitely be more lively. ”
How many noble masters are sick?
Now there are only a few people in the palace who can be called your master.
Got sick together, and last night, it must have been something that happened last night.
"Can't my aunt and I talk a little bit?" Lord Mingjia said softly.
Aunt Ren bowed to Mingjia and said, "The Queen Mother specially explained, let you take care of your body, when did you bring the little county lord of the new moon into the palace to visit her old man's home?" For the rest, there is no need for the county lord to worry about fatigue. ”
When the county lord of Mingjia heard this, he didn't ask much, and said with a smile: "That annoying aunt told the queen mother that I would enter the palace to visit her old man after a while. ”
Aunt Ren nodded, teased the little county lord, and said happily: "The little county lord is really good...... Look at this hair, it's thick and shiny. It's not often seen in children who are only a month old. If the Queen Mother can come today, I am afraid that I will be reluctant to go back to the palace. There was a lot of regret in his words, and he said: "The first child of the great-grandchildren has an unusual weight in the heart of the Queen Mother." ”
Among the grandchildren of the Queen Mother, the lord of Mingjia County occupies the elder, and he has been favored since he was a child, which is equivalent to raising him in front of the Queen Mother. This crescent moon lord is even more junior, and he will be in a better mood for the elderly in the future, and he doesn't know what will happen when he is spoiled.
Lord Mingjia hesitated for a moment and said, "The eldest aunt of the new moon painted a portrait of her. My aunt sent it to the Queen Mother for me. Let the Queen Mother take a look. ”
"Portrait?" Aunt Ren was a little surprised: "Such a young child can also be painted?" ”
Nowadays, people have a vague taboo about portraits, especially children and girls.
"My sister-in-law's painting skills are different." The maid brought over a few scrolls, and the lord of Mingjia picked one. Carefully unfolded and presented to Princess Ying and Aunt Ren. I'm a little embarrassed. "This is a portrait of me with a big belly before I gave birth......"
On the picture scroll, the county lord of Mingjia looked excited, happy and shy, just because Chen Houji, who was kneeling in front of her, was holding her stomach in a panic and reverence. A steed was snorting on the side, and the saddle was not lowered, so that he could clearly see that he had just returned with his master.
The whole picture is as clear as looking in a mirror, as if every strand of hair can be seen clearly.
Aunt Ren was amazed and said, "There is such a clear painting!" It's amazing! ”
Lord Mingjia put this pair away and rolled it up, took out two more paintings, and said: "This is the painting after the child is born and wiped clean, this is what it looks like when you open your eyes and look at people when you wash the third day." There are three in total, which is the best gift from my sister-in-law to our mother and daughter, more precious than anything else! ”
"Of course, such a souvenir is more precious than anything else!" Aunt Ren agreed.
The county lord of Mingjia presented the pair of "Washing Three" to Aunt Ren and said, "When my aunt leaves for a while, take this pair with me and show it to the Queen Mother and her old man." After a while, I begged my sister-in-law to help Xinyue draw another picture of the full moon ceremony, and then let someone send it to the palace. ”
"However, my aunt must remind her that I gave this painting to her old man, not for her!" Where is the lord of Mingjia willing to let these paintings go outside, even if he is reluctant to give them to the queen mother and princess Ying, he said: "When I go to come back in the future, she must not be unhappy!" ”
Aunt Ren smiled: "The slave will tell me." ”
After seeing the child and having a painting to take back to the errand, Aunt Ren didn't stay longer and soon left the Chen Mansion.
Princess Ying was still reluctant to look at the remaining two paintings, and said, "This is really painted by your sister-in-law?" I've never seen anything like this before! ”
It was the one that the lord of Mingjia bought from Shen Rouning at the beginning, and the painting method was also very different.
"Sister-in-law, she has been specializing in research for several years, and the pigments and colors on it can only be blended by herself, which is very precious." Lord Mingjia said admiringly: "She also has some paintings of animals, flowers and birds on display, and she has a little reputation, but most people don't know it." The old man liked her very much and often praised her for being able to leave a name for future generations. ”
After Princess Ying took a closer look, she put down the scroll, sighed lightly, and said, "No wonder Old Man Chen doesn't want her to enter the palace." Like her, entering the palace is really a waste. She looked at the painting and was a little moved, and asked the lord of Mingjia: "Mingjia, I want to ask her to paint a few portraits of Mingrou and Mingshan for you, I don't know if she will agree?" ”
"Watching you grow up one by one, sometimes when you come back to your senses in a trance, you will suddenly not remember what you looked like when you were a child, and I regret it very much."
Lord Mingjia was stunned and said, "Let me ask my sister-in-law." ”
After the guests dispersed, Lord Mingjia and Chen Houji mentioned the matter. Chen Houji was a little unhappy and said, "You didn't ask your sister-in-law to show her painting to others, isn't it a little disrespectful to her?" Mingjia, you should know that once this matter starts, it will not be able to be contained in the future. ”
"Right now, it's the princess begging for each other, how can the sister-in-law refuse?" Chen Houji said: "And when the Queen Mother saw the painting, would she also summon her sister-in-law into the palace to paint?" Then the reputation spread, and many people came to the door with sincerity to beg, should the sister-in-law answer or not? No, it is inevitable that it is unreasonable and arrogant; If you do, my sister-in-law will only be able to **** deal with those people, and there will be no leisure! ”
Lord Mingjia pursed his lips and said, "This matter, it was my fault. There is no way for the queen mother and the princess to do so, so I can only tell them not to show their voices, give my sister-in-law less trouble, and make amends. ”
"Sister-in-law, I'll apologize to her."
Chen Houji saw that his wife was reasonable, and said, "I'll go to my sister-in-law with you to talk about it." ”
Lord Mingjia's heart warmed.
Although Chen Houji accused her of not doing something right, he was willing to take responsibility with her. This is just a small thing, but it can undoubtedly show that her husband is someone she can rely on!
"Look at you, why are you even more squeamish after giving birth." Chen Houji smiled and mocked slightly, and wiped her eyes for her.
The county lord of Mingjia tilted his head, snorted, and said, "This county lord is happy!" (To be continued.) )
